Green & Co. S report on cotton futures saws:
1T was very narrow and featureleSs market
for cotton contracts to-day, n fair record of
sales was made, but trading was mainly a sort
or swapping arrangement, through which but
httle actual new business was transacted, and
changes IN value have been over very small
range. There did not appear TO be much Au-
gust to sell, and no inclination to manipulate
that month. New crop was offered rather
freely, but not urged in absence of demand. On
the whole the tone ran easy, with the close
showing prices fraction below last evening"

CHICAGO, July 22-Grains that were up yes
terday were down to-day. On Change weather
reports cut less figure, and attention was again
turned largely to receipts and shipments. For
eign advices' were not encouraging, and the
local situation did not help holders of any kind
of grain out very mnch. After crop prospects
were fairly considered, many returned to the
belief that the damage reported had been over
estimated and general selling was the result.
Wheat, corn and oats leaders in speculative
deals, all opened weak and went down together.
August wheat touched zoe for the first time this
year. August corn touched 3T54c and August
oats sold TO 2516c. The depression in wheat
during the early part of the session to-day was
very marked, and prices were lower than at any
other period for the year, the same futures CON
sdered. August wheat on Change opened 4c
under at 709Sc, and slid gradually down until
zoe was touched amid considerable activity and
feeling that looked for time as if another cent
drop might easily follow; zoe proved the turn
ing point, and August then hrmed up NC. Sep
TENDER opened at 723sc, and declined one point
more than August, reaching 7126c at the lowest
and reacting in a similar way October sold for
the first time below 7Ic, and touched for its
lowest point 1880. December sold at the same
time at 7616c. Provisions were strong and higher
under buying by Armour, who took lard and
ribs The latter were especially strong August
ribs opened &c higher at 81 U16, and sold to
81 80 by 1870. September lard advanced from
SO 6715 to So 20 in the same time. Armour's
buying of provisions firmed September lard to
SO 72I6 and August ribs to 81 9213. At these
figures purchasing was discontinued and values
sagged off
